Brilliant and honest…… cant knock truth
Yeah but sorry for getting you down But I can see positives - thought we were staring down 60 odd points when reflecting after the Warrington match and whilst we have discussed the injuries or players out of position at least they still have the fight! Thought they hung in there especially in the 2nd half!

Clubb, Hardaker & Bateman not too far off returning (fingers crossed) so some hope on the horizon and the lads did try tonight.

We need to tie Kai Pearce Paul to a long contract - the lads class!
Definitely! Cracking player 😀

But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Eh? I think the point was you have to go back 15 years for Wigan to have lost five in a row other than the two under Lam. Or put another way during that 15 years it’s happen twice and the coach was Lam. So that must also mean it’s happened twice in the three years Lam has been in charge.
You’ve lost me Dave? [emoji848] Mind you doesn’t take much these days [emoji1787]
It’s was you who lost me :) I didn’t understand then relevance of you comment in reply to Dan’s.

Wigan have lost 5 times in a row twice in the past 15 years….. the coach both times? Adrian Lam.Says it all.
This stint of 3 years, is the first time Lam has been head coach of Wigan, so how could he have been head coach in the previous 15 years for the other 5 losses in a row?

It seems obvious enough to me; as josie says, the post implies Lam was coach 15 years ago.

Ok I’ll try again :)

Assuming Dan is correct if you look at the last 15 years Wigan have lost five in a row twice.

He then said those those two five in a row losing streaks where both when Lam was coach.

So they both must have happened in the last three years.

To find the next previous five in a row losing sequence you have to go back 15 years.

It seems obvious to me Dan is saying in the last 15 years Wigan have only had a five match losing run twice.

As he then said Lam was coach both times they must have occurred in the last 3 years.

To find another five match losing sequence you need to go back 15 years.

Yeah, I get that, but you can surely see that 's a bit unclear, to say the least?

Much better than a 24-0 default, and it could have been 24-14 if we'd taken all our pens under the sticks! The future is bright!

I am trying to think of a new Head Coach who could bring a much improved defence, better discipline and a more positive attitude to the squad. Also players who would run their blood to water for the club and their new coach!
Names anyone, please?
